MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 191 Liveliness
"He was indeed the son of that jeweler, but he was just an insignificant sister-in-law. He had been treated harshly for many years and was very dissatisfied with his father and brother. The family was overthrown by the Yan family of the Turbi people. He not only did not have the slightest resentment, but immediately acted under the enemy's door. Effectiveness. Because of this level of extermination of the clan, the Yan clan arranged him to lurk within our clan. "
"This wolf's ambitious guy came to our Xuelie clan and saw the jealousy of Emperor Beibei, and he became greedy."
"In order to have this treasure for a long time, he stole the orb. He disclosed the strategic subordinates of my tribe to the Turbi people."
"My tribe's war on the border really failed."
"And the guy took the opportunity to steal the Emperor Beizhu, and since then left Li Tuoer, who had deep affection for him, and his friends who once trusted him."
"The emperor's mysterious pearl was given to my tribe by the heavens, and was linked to the destiny and prosperity of the tribe. Losing it, even the heavens were angry with it, once blessed us, and the rich land that gave us vitality instantly turned into the evil land of **** , The outbreak of fierce movements. "
"Without the suppression of Xuanzhu, the luck of my tribe turned from prosperity to decline immediately. The battlefield was defeated, and successive earthquakes and natural disasters completely destroyed the tribe. The evil Turbi tribe took the opportunity to invade, followed by the surrounding small and medium-sized ones. The tribe, and the Mourne court ... "
It was another tribal crisis caused by a detailed work. Qin Nuo touched his nose and automatically ignored the Qi Yunzhi's feudal superstition.
But turning around and thinking, maybe Xuelie's luck is really bad.
After stealing the treasure, I happened to encounter a volcano and entered a period of intense activity. Although it did not erupt completely, the earthquake and poisonous gas were enough to destroy the city on the ground. In addition, the Turks and other clans took the opportunity to fish for oil and water, and beat the water dogs. It ’s strange that it does n’t die.
It was also because during the strong Xuelie clan, there were too many small and medium-sized tribes that were conquered and oppressed. Now they are being killed ... uh, but then again, even though the customs on the grassland of Beishuo did not oppress these tribes before, After their decline, it seems that they will be seized with oil and water.
"The thief who stole the treasure, changed his name and changed his name. With the help of the Northern Emperor Xuanzhu, his martial arts has progressed thousands of miles. Now he is already a well-known martial arts master in Beishuo. In addition to the countless wealth obtained from his business, he has become a large number of big Shuo The tribe's guests are honored, but our tribe is plunged into the abyss ...
Qin Nuo was surprised and listened to the meaning of the high priest's words, so why should he solve his fame now? But I didn't hear the name of the North Shuo Chaoye?
Regarding his doubts, the high priest sneered: "He committed such a heinous crime. Where did he dare to use his former name and long ago abandoned his ancestral inheritance and renamed it He Lanyu? Now he is also a master of rich armor in Beishuo."
Qin Nuo was surprised that the name He Lanxuan had really heard of Beishuo's famous wealthy merchant and giant rich. It is said that his wealth was comparable to that of a prince. In Beishuo, if there is no considerable ability, pure richness will only become a fat sheep of various forces. This He Lanyu is a powerful local force that occupies the vast mountain forests and grasslands in the east. It has a huge momentum and gathers tens of thousands of people. I am also said to be a top martial art master.
The most rare thing is that this person has a wide range of communication and a brave morale. He not only has good relations with the major tribes in Beishuo, but also has contacts with the Western Regions and the Great Zhou. He is not disturbed by the war between the national tribes. He has a lot of business with Lingdong.
Before He Ci secretly reported, Changlong Guan was looted by the Tu Bi nationality, and a Beishu businessman secretly ventilated a letter to him before he gathered the soldiers and horses in time to keep the people intact. The person who reported was He Lanyu's men. From this perspective, Qin Nuo still owes this person a favor.
"This is the truth that the tribe has only pursued in recent years, and finally found out. Who knows the heroes who are vocal on the bright side? They are so insidious and deceitful." Said the high priest with hate.
"Because of his evil deeds, countless people died in natural disasters, and more were killed, looted and trafficked."
"At the most critical moment, I still have a spirit girl, with tens of thousands of surviving people, into this holy mountain to escape the slaughter."
"The road to escape in the mountains is extremely difficult, and there are people who are dying. Everyone is full of resentment against Li Touer. I feel that from beginning to end, all the suffering is due to the wrong relationship of the spirit girl."
"Before she exposed the precious treasures to others, she attracted a concubine. She secretly taught the martial arts of her clan to outsiders, and even violated the clan rules, brought the treacherous work into the temple and desecrated this sacred. Place, even the most precious treasures have been lost. "
"And even more tragic is that Li Tuoer was ultimately unable to accept her fault. Even at this point, she still does not believe that the man she loves will be a fine work of the Turbi people."
"The people ’s resentment against the spirit woman also reached its peak. In the end, in despair and anger, she was publicly negotiated, using her to worship the holy mountain, and sacrificing the honorable goddess as a sacrifice. You can heal the anger in this world. "
Qin Nuo stepped on the stairs, feeling suddenly sad. The rise and decline of a tribe, the infatuation and disappointment of a woman sounds like a distant story, but walking in this temple full of historical traces, this age-old past seems to be happening around you. Can't help but get involved.
"In the end, Li Tuer jumped from the high platform of this temple in the clan's accusations ..."
The effort of speaking, the two of them have reached the highest level of the shrine, one after the other, and it was built by hollowing out a steep mountain wall. Qin Nuo looked under the probe. Below the mountain wall, there were cliffs of ten thousand feet. As far as I could see, all were dark and hollow, and the cold and cold air surged up, as if the mouth of a giant blood basin, with a horrifying breath.
Leap from here ...
Qin Nuo imagined the situation at that time. What kind of mood did the girl who once enjoyed the supreme respect of the tribe and the girl who grew up in the bright aura choose such a desperate road?
He stood on a high platform, looking far into the distance, the mountains were endlessly beautiful, and the snow was reflecting the endless blue sky. But withdrawing his sight and throwing himself downward, it was endless darkness and horror.
Seeing the sight, the breeze blew around and there was a crisp sound. Qin Nuo turned his head and saw a bell hanging on the carved railing of the high platform. White shells strung together, with delicate silver bells in the middle. Swaying in the wind, trembling.
Qin Nuo raised his hand and touched the cold bell. Although it has gone through a long time, the hanging bell is still exquisite.
Suddenly thought of something, Qin Nuo couldn't help asking: "The body of the spirit girl ..."
After talking halfway, he shut up immediately. Beneath the cliffs, where are there any remains?
In the legend of Xuelie, she has become that valley.
The high priest continued: "Just after Li Tuer jumped down the cliff, the next night, there was another earthquake here, with smoke rising from the ground and countless dark sand and stones covering the sky. The vision lasted for more than ten days. After everything finally subsided. The tribe found that just below this temple, the valley that had been extremely cold and snow all year round suddenly became warm. The snow in it melted over the years, Converging into countless rivers, the rich black soil is exposed, and vitality begins to sprout. "
"Even in the coldest winter, it is as warm as spring."
"Riteau's sacrifice has indeed brought the most desired result. We have a hidden land, rich and beautiful, and a pleasant climate."
"On this land, we recuperate and multiply our children. Just 20 years ago, only tens of thousands of tribes expanded several times. This land not only provides us with abundant food, but also various gems and yellowstones. Waiting for the minerals that can be sold, our tribe quickly recovered. "
"In just two decades, the tribe has gone from prosperity to decay, and then to revival."
"But Li Touer's shadow has always been shrouded in this land."
"From ten years ago, on the sides of a river on the westernmost side of the valley, people began to inexplicably die, and then the land on which they were standing turned into a barren dead land."
"The tribe gradually floated into fear, and a restricted area was delimited in the valley, and they did not dare to approach it in the slightest."
"Year after year, the scope of the restricted area is expanding year by year."
"I know this is her return, and her grievances remain on this land."
"So we speeded up our pace and equipped our young fighters. We arranged manpower to look for the lost tribe and build up strength. At the same time, we built a new Xuelie city at the foot of the mountain. In the past few years, we have migrated the tribe in batches New city. Only a few thousand people remain here, taking care of the crops on the ground, and collecting yellowstone. "
"This return was originally a helpless choice for a strategy, but for a short stay of two or three days, I will ..."
"She still couldn't give up, the resentment that year ..."
The voice of the high priest was full of nothingness, blown by the cold night wind.
Qin Nuo dug helplessly to dig his ears and tell science to people of this era, which is really a laborious task, especially in a region with a strong divine atmosphere like Beishuo.
Even though the high priest had known and accepted the reality of the poisonous gas in the ground, in his consciousness, it still seemed that these poisonous gases were the embodiment of Li Tuer's grievances ...
In Qin Nuo's view, all this is really just a coincidence. The volcanic eruption is not transferred by human will. Even in the era of science and technology, the large-scale natural disasters cannot be controlled, let alone now.
The ancient city of Pompeii was once buried under volcanic lava.
The only way to deal with such natural disasters is to run away, and the farther you go, the better. It's a pity ... Qin Nuo smiled bitterly, thinking about the plight under the valley. In this kind of environment, if you can do everything, you can't escape.
Standing on the mountain wall at the highest level of the temple, he briefly remembered the past. The high priest turned around and began to go downstairs.
Qin Nuo also felt quite comfortable after turning a bend to isolate the howling cold wind behind him.
This time the high priest did not repeat the road when he came, but headed east and took Qin Nuo into a room on the far east side of the second floor.
The room is very spacious, with delicate patterns carved on the white stone paved floor. This should be a study room, with bookshelves lined with books. It's just that most of them are old and bleak, and no one seems to have read them for a long time.
What attracted Qin Nuo's attention was the eastern wall, where there were several pictures neatly hanging, all of which were beautiful and beautiful. The most amazing thing is that the pictures are all realistic styles that are closer to the western world. Unlike the flat wind in the court of the moment, the beauties in the portrait are moving as if they were real.
With the passage of time, the drawing paper has turned yellow, but it still does not damage their lifelike beauty. Smart eyes gazed at this ancient room, as well as strangers who suddenly came into the room.
"That is the portrait of the spirit girl of all generations. Starting from the third generation of spirit girl, our tribe has a valuable record left by the painter." High Priest Tao.
Qin Nuo's eyes fell on the portrait of the last spirit girl, staring at the beautiful and moving face above, "Is this the last tribe of the noble tribe ...?"
"Yes, this is Li Touer." In front of the granddaughter who once loved most, the high priest Furui's face also began to disintegrate. He lowered his head, shaking his old shoulders as if overwhelmed.
"She is really ... too beautiful." Qin Nuoqing couldn't help but sigh. Among the portraits of the spirit girls, Li Toer was undoubtedly the most beautiful and touching one.
Throughout more than two decades, the girl's posture on the portrait is still full of vibrant beauty. Different from the dignity and solemnity of other spirit girls, she has a kind of sorrow in her eyebrows, a sorrow that should not appear on the face of a girl of this age. This sorrow made her beautiful face more seductive and hopeful.
"At the time of the portrait, it was exactly one month after she was sixteen when she took the veil. According to the regulations of the Xuelie clan, after the spiritual girl took the veil, she could choose a lover. And the embarrassment of the warriors in the clan to He Jieyou, even He Jieyou's indifference ... "the high priest muttered.
"What about beauty in the air, a weak heart, and an irresponsible obsession ... I was too negligent at that time."
After a moment of silence, the high priest finally awakened from his memory of the past. He returned to the study, took a folded parchment from the shelf in the second row, and spread it out on the table.
"This is a road map for entering the mountains in the early years. Since the valley has been hidden, this road has not been passed for more than two decades."
Qin Nuo was staring at Li Tuoer's beautiful appearance, heard a word, and almost did not believe his ears. After the reaction came, I was overjoyed. There was another way! Your old man took it out early! !! !!
The thought turned, and I thought, when I came to this temple just now, did n’t the high priest say that, every spring and summer, the spirit girl would enter the mountain to live in the temple and pray for blessings. There must be another way.
I hate myself for being caught in the twists and turns of the story, ignoring it.
There are so many people waiting outside, let's set off! Qin Nuo couldn't wait to yell out immediately, got to the table, only glanced briefly, and he stunned in his heart. He looked up and stared at the high priest.
The high priest's face also floated bitterly, "This road is not smooth sailing. This season, it is not a martial arts man, and it is impossible to support leaving."
Most of this route is a steep mountain road that crosses the mountains. It is okay to say in spring and summer that you can walk carefully. But now it's winter, covered with snow and ice in many places, and the difficulty of walking has increased more than ten times. No wonder the High Priest has been slow to come up with it.
"Although it is a bit difficult to walk in the cold season, your Majesty the General is elite, and those children of Tao Yunqing can also endure hardships. You can go downhill safely with your company.
The high priest's face was dull, and he rolled the map into Qin Nuo's hand.
Qin Nuo took over complexly. On this snow-covered road, they can indeed walk, and Tao Yunqing can also walk, but tens of thousands of ordinary women, children and old people outside are absolutely impossible to come down.
What the high priest meant was to make them abandon the women and children here, and even abandon him as an old man, and the young men formed a team to go down the mountain.
"The young general is a kind-hearted person. I just hope that after leaving here in the future, I can support the surviving people of my tribe and give them a chance."
There was something in the high priest's words, Qin Nuo suddenly looked up: "I just ..."
He wanted to say that he was just a junior school, but how could he support a tribe.
However, to the bright eyes of the High Priest, Qin Nuo was speechless. There was even a thought in his mind that the wise old man in front of him had already seen his identity.
The high priest said nothing, waved his hands and walked outward.
Feeling heavy, holding the map in his hand, Qin Nuo left the temple and returned to the platform on the mountainside.
Several people in Pei Tuo were waiting for him, and they were relieved to see him return safely.
I was overjoyed to learn that Qin Nuo got the road map for going down the mountain.
Several people gathered for a while on the edge of the map.
Pei Tuo frowned: "This is a long way, I'm afraid it will take five or six days."
"You ignore the snow and ice today, I think, at least ten days, most of them are only a month." Yan Chang sighed.
"Although it takes some effort, we can still support it, but ..." Yao Xingxu suddenly couldn't say any more.
Looking at the women and children scattered on the hillside, everyone felt heavy.
And Qin Nuo's heart has another layer of worry. On the day of climbing to the middle of the mountain, roaring sounds continued to come from the underground. For these unusual sounds, Xuelie people are accustomed to it, at least not to make them more focused than hunger and cold. It felt like this was a more terrifying voice.
It is clear that the volcano underneath does not know when it will erupt.
Even if they choose that winding road downhill, in case they encounter a volcanic eruption in the middle ...
